**Literally I can't. Ok so first I know that I've been dormant. Second I'm really struggling right now. Third on with the show....

Echo's POV:

"Hey missy! Put the gun down so we can talk."

"Hmmmmmmm....." I pretend to think. "How about no!? Oooo better yet how about never calling me missy again and get out of my way so we can leave. Unless of course you're going to adopt us... then you're going to have to talk to Aunt Dee." I sass.

"....." That left Fury speechless.

"That's what I thought..." That was great... I shut down Fury. Nick Fury. The Pirate. "Let's go Cleo."

"Umm I kinda want to go with them..."

"Fuck no you don't. Excuse us. We need to talk alone for a bit." Fury and Stark are smirking, fuck them. I drag Cleo to a corner.

"What are you doing!? We are not going with them!" I yell.

"Why not! They are the fucking Avengers!"

"No they aren't! As you can see they are Nick Fury and Tony Stark. Who knows what they want with us! All we know is that they wanted to kidnap us before the Hydra agents can." I scream.

"Um.... How did you know that? It was on an ear piece an hundred yards from here!" Fury asked.

"That's none of your business. Bitch."  I think they know that I have special hearing. That's not good because I told them that I don't use my powers.... I turn to Cleo, "We are leaving. We need to talk to Aunt Dee."

"Ma'am I'm afraid that you need to come with us."

"I'm afraid that we can't Tony. And when did you use the word ma'am-"

I'm cut off by a gun shot. The last guy. I forgot about him. I turn just in time to see him run off. I fall to the ground, gushing blood and vision blackening.

Echo's POV:

Have you ever woken up in a place that you don't recognize or that you've never seen before!? It sucks because you have no idea where you are and what has happened in the past few days. This is happening to me right now. I'm in a room with a heart monitor and an IV tap connected to me.
Wait am I in the Hospital!? I smell POPTARTS and *sniff sniff* plums? Why do I smell plums!? I thought hospitals were supposed to smell clean not yummy. No I'm not in a hospital, maybe a medical home? I have a heart monitor but am in a huge bed with personal effects of a man on/in the side table. I look to my left (and I see the Hollywood sign haha Jkjk) and a man is sleeping next to me, arms around my body and no shirt on. Granted he's hot and chiseled but why am I in his bed? I would only except this if he were a god but he's not.

I rolled onto my back and sat up ouch my head is pounding. I couldn't see his face until he rolled over and smiled up at me.

"Ahhh, Lady Echo you have awoken!"
"Shit its-your Thor!? And I am in your bed!"
"Ummmm *Thor looks around a bit* yes you are in my bed."

Wtf did I do to get myself into Thor's bed!? And thats why I smelled poptarts. But plums??? Who else is here-

"And yes I'm Thor of Asgard. Now I know you probably have questions but first I'm going to say that if I were you I wouldn't use that word in front of Captain... He's ummmmmm...sensitive to words like that..... Although your friend, Cleo, didn't really care for Captain's sensitivity. So any questions or do you just want to go back to sleep because we don't have to be up for another 20 minutes?"

How do I even respond to that?

"Sleep sounds fine but one thing."
I say as I snuggle up close with Thor's warm body. "Why does my head hurt so badly?"

The door bangs open. "That's what we're here for. Oh! What is going on here!?!?" Tony Stark just walked in the door with Bruce Banner and Natasha Romanoff. I shrink into Thor's body as their gaze sweep over us: under the covers, his arms around me, and we're spooning. Someone tell me how I got here again!?!?

"I'm cold, he's warm *throws a thumb toward Thor* and just woke up in a new place. I think that you know more than me at this moment." I look over and Thor is blushing like crazy while untangling his arms from me.
"Well I came in here after my dinner and she was shivering in my bed so I got in and made her warm." Ugh Thor is so innocent.
"I'm sorry but you just made her warm just like that?" Tony asks. "You just snuggled and spooned with a stranger because she was cold and 'in your bed'? Well I mean I see your point because she hot-" Natasha punched Tony. "Gosh Tony shut up will you!" Natasha says.
Bruce has just been standing with his mouth open staring at Thor and I in Thor's bed.
"Um uh I'm here for a reason?"
Bruce says like he's lost his entire mind. "Yes your head Cleo um you were shot in the leg and the pain killers we gave you are doing the opposite and giving you pain so we need to check on that. Any ideas why that is happening?"
I lean down and unwrap my bullet wound on my lower thigh.
"Yeah actually my body doesn't do well with meds and it also heals itself and I've found that wrapping my wound makes it worse. Ah shit! How long has this bandage been on there?"
"About 3 hours why."
"Because it may leave a scar unless I get some alcohol on it right now. You don't happen to have alcohol do you?"
Bruce looks at Tony.
"Well Tony?" Bruce asks. "Do you have any alcohol with you?"
"Guys! You know I'm trying to quit drinking!!!" I look into Tony's mind and lean forward reaching around Tony to his back waistband and I bring out the flask hidden there.
"Quit drinking my ass Tony!" I laugh at Tony's attempt to keep the flask hidden from me.
I pour the whole flask into and on the bullet wound. The bullet pops out of my leg and drops onto Thor's bed and the whole closes.
"My body basically runs on alcohol." I explain.
"Same here, yo." Ugh when Tony tries to be cool it is really weird.
"So does anyone want to explain the last few hour to me?"

Mystery Person POV:

"Ugh the Avengers again! Why do they always kill my plans!? Whatever my spy will infiltrate soon enough won't they?"
"Y-yes M-Master."
"Good now prepare the spy."
"Yes Master."
